Hello, I'm Kristen.

JOURNALING EXPERT• WRITER • MARKETER

I believe keeping a journal will change your life.

Journaling is one of the most powerful tools we have for self-discovery, clarity, and growth. I’ve kept a journal for most of my life—and that practice has shaped everything I do.

I’m the creator of The Transformation Year, a year-long guided journaling journey with daily prompts to support reflection and meaningful change. I’m also the author of two memoirs, Tell the Trail and A Tiny Existence, both drawn from decades of personal journaling.

Professionally, I bring together a love of storytelling and strategy. At Day One—the award-winning journaling app—I lead content, product, and growth initiatives that help people around the world build a consistent journaling habit.

Thanks for visiting! Whether you’re exploring my books, journaling projects, or creative work, I’m glad you’re here.
